☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Wacky Races Chapter One: Qualifying," the final qualifying round heats up with all the classic chaos and inventive vehicles fans know, now with a slightly more grounded edge. Peter Perfect announces his acquisition of the Global Racing Federation, merging it into "Wacky Races Global" and postponing the race for a year—hinting at a deeper plan, especially as his attention turns to Penelope Pitstop’s recovery. Written by Ivan Cohen and illustrated by Mariano Benitez Chapo, with colors by Nick Caponi and letters by Jeff Eckleberry, the issue blends nostalgic mayhem with subtle shifts in the race’s future. The cover, by Joseph Michael Linsner, captures the moment’s electric tension.
Penelope Pitstop trades her spotlight for a racecar, determined to prove herself on the chaotic Wacky Races circuit—only to be sabotaged by Dick Dastardly in her very first lap. With her car in pieces and her confidence shaken, she rallies her mechanic friend Hoyt and launches a series of inventive (and wildly unorthodox) schemes to raise funds and rebuild. Her hustle catches the eye of Peter Perfect, the former racer turned corporate mastermind behind the race, who may just have a plan of his own.
In "Wacky Races Chapter Two: Wheels in Motion," the final qualifying round heats up with all the classic chaos and outlandish vehicles, but with a slightly more grounded edge. As Peter Perfect declares his acquisition of the Global Racing Federation and the imminent rebranding of the race into "Wacky Races Global," his unexpected move hints at more than just business—especially as he quietly works to help Penelope Pitstop recover, both on and off the track.
In "Wacky Races Chapter Three: The Perils," newly inaugurated President Peter Perfect kicks off his term with a wildly chaotic Wacky Race on his first day in office, culminating in a dramatic finish at the White House. Dick Dastardly claims victory, only to be crushed by the arrival of Perfect’s towering new mega-racer, Road Force One, while Penelope, back in her rebuilt Compact Pussycat, earns the crowd’s cheers—leaving Dastardly and Muttley red-faced and out of luck. With the race behind them, a new chapter begins for Penelope and the president.
